Transformers Legacy
Announced this morning on Hasbro’s Pulsecon 2021 live stream, the next mainline Transformers series has an official name, art and a vague outline.
What Is Legacy?
Legacy seems to have a single-sentence describing its purpose, restated a couple of times during the stream:
- Brings together favourite characters from all corners of the TF universe into one line
- Take characters from different continuities and place them into one universe - Legacy.
BBTS is offering a Voyager set of 2 figures that says one is a secret.
